We've had some wonderful highs already from this World Cup, but Monday brought a tragic low too. A 25-year-old Chinese fan was so enthused by the World Cup that he pulled an all-nighter on the first two nights of the tournament - and sadly died.

According to the Xinhua news agency, doctors said the death was related to an excessive lack of sleep, but couldn't be sure whether it was sheer exhaustion or a possible heart attack.

A Mexican fan almost had his World Cup ruined after leaving a backpack containing nine tickets for games on a bus.

Eric Tejeda left the bag, which also contained money, credit cards and clothes in Natal before Mexico's opening game of the tournament on Friday, and thought his tickets were lost until a local nurse discovered them.

The nurse, Luzimar Nascimento, then desperately tried to reunite Tejeda with his belongings, calling the credit card companies, Facebook and got Mexico fans to show his photo to others to find him.
